Short Description:Gourmand Magic

The holiday season has arrived, and it is decked out. Some fig, some chocolate, some graham cracker, vanilla, rice puff, all finished with a honey glaze. The gourmand notes round out his base DNA, that could contain musk and oud (they are not listed, but it smells like it). The first gourmand I can’t wait to wear for a holiday dinner. Usually gourmands don’t have a place on this channel, but this one is different. The figgy pudding Christmas song comes to mind. Drizzled in pistachio and cardamom gelato. Crispy chocolate topping with Winnie the Pooh dripping honey all over this. A crisped vanilla rice cone completes the transition to an exquisite gourmand that will elevate your holiday parties. 

It even has an aromatic note that gives off the smell of a wreath to top this thing off. Like all Elixirs, this is blended exceptionally well. Ahmed excels at his craft, and everything I smell you can no doubt know ingredients are in the best hands. His many years of expertise come through on every composition. Just like a pastry chef or a mixologist would do, he makes a magic potion on your skin with his mixing. The pistachio is the perfect nut bridging chocolate, honey, fig, and vanilla. It really comes together like the perfect holiday recipe. This hits every smell bud perfectly.

Overall, this is not just for chocolate lovers but also gourmand lovers. This is an extravagant, bold, and a perfect dessert perfume, easily converting me over to the sweet side. I have already worn this seven times. This will be used for holiday parties, and I’m actually excited to wear it.
